The 2021 Rucksack Club Charity Calendar is raising funds for Urban Uprising https://www.urbanuprising.org/about who support young people from diverse, disadvantaged backgrounds to discover climbing and use it to help improve their physical, social and emotional wellbeing. In their words: Elevating and Inspiring Young People Through Climbing.
You can get your copy for just £10 plus p&p with ALL PROCEEDS (Yes, that’s EVERY PENNY OF YOUR TENNER) going to the charity at
The Calendar features more than fifty Rucksack Club members (either in front of or behind the lens) in one of The Club’s many diverse outdoor activities.
